Japan General Discussion/Housing Deleted Several Housing Complaint Threads

[Stormfur]

My quick look tells me they aren't saying anything. But a post I made earlier may explain why: The majority of Japanese servers only have around 5k players on them. ........ And besides that, Japanese people don't have a huge tendency to interact on social platforms like forums. (Ever check the comment sections of Japanese youtube videos? Usually few comments from Japanese people.) So it's likely that most people who didn't get a house and are upset will never voice it here.

Ohh WOW. Really! I thought there were more active Japanese players in this game than NA players. I figured their servers would be nearly bursting.

I don't want to think that the devs don't know.. I mean surely they must know how we all feel about this. Threads with fewer comments and lesser interaction got noticed, surely these would too.

There are 3 datacenters in Japan. NA has 2. EU has 1.

The fan made Lucky Bancho census recently put out showed that most servers on the JP datacenters are lower population and more evenly spread out than we see in European and NA servers. It's for the most part the reverse of what we have, JP having a few outliers of gargantuan servers in a sea of low pop verses NA/EU having a few dead servers beneath mid to high pop.

That makes it appear that most JP players are competing for housing against 4k to 8k players, verses us fighting upwards to 4 times that.

Honestly, to me it looks like that Japan has too many servers, or conversely, that NA and EU badly need more (EU's filled up at warp speed when they were added...). But, one feature is not enough of a reason to add a datacenter.

There were no dead servers on the EU datacenter before 4.0. That is why only EU got 2 new servers.
